Great Tour of Accra - The tour was great - we were really happy to have done it during our short visit of Accra.
Our guide Joe arrived promptly on time to pick us up from the hotel. We enjoyed each stop, but especially the Makola market - Joe took us to a nice view point from up high to see the hustle and bustle of the market and treated us to a coconut from a street vendor - and the center for national culture, where you can buy locally produced goods. I got a really nice traditional shirt. Joe was helpful throughout and had several fun stories to tell. We highly recommend doing the tour with Joe when you visit Accra.

Book this tour with Joe while you are in Accra! - Joe is an awesome tour guide while we were in Accra. He took us to multiple places and made great suggestions for local cuisine. We were able to visit the market, multiple historic sites and try some great street food. We did not feel rushed and he even took pictures for us. Highly recommended.

Accra city tour review - It was a good tour to get to know Accra and the History of Ghana.
There was a difference on what was announced we would see and where we actually went. Please update the pdf of the information you share to the costumers of where we will go on the tour and do not create false expectations of going to see something that we actually are not going to go. The guide was good and open to answer many questions I asked about what we were seeing and about Ghana in general.

Jamestown and Osu Castle Tour - Tour Jamestown and Osu Castle done.
Was a fun tour to do. There was some uncertainty about paying the entrance but was solved very well and professionally by our tour guide so we did not have to pay the costs ourselves. The tourguide (Moses) was very protective and attentive towards us. Moses can also tell nicely so that we have not been bored for a moment, under his care, and have laughed a lot together.
Highly recommended.
